Giuseppe Verdi: Falstaff
Verona, Teatro Filarmonico
About the Event
Immerse yourself in an enchanting evening at the iconic Teatro Filarmonico in Verona with Giuseppe Verdi's Falstaff.
Verdi's final masterpiece, crafted in 1893, makes its return to Teatro Filarmonico after a fifteen‐year hiatus. It invites comparisons to Salieri's rendition from a century earlier, inspired by Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor. Here, the spotlight is on the vibrant characters: the mischievous wives, the satire of serious opera and jealous husbands, and, most significantly, the persona of Falstaff, an aging nobleman who remains irrepressible. Verdi's sophisticated creation mirrors his own persona through an unexpected comedy marked by a wry smile.
The production features a dreamlike and quintessentially British performance by Teatro Regio di Parma, alongside significant debuts.
